Job Description
A growing fire and security organisation is looking for an experienced Fire Risk & Technical Manager to lead and expand their Fire Risk & Technical division.
This is a unique opportunity to take ownership of an already established business unit and develop it into a standalone consultancy offering. You’ll inherit an existing team, manage specialist contractors, and play a key role in shaping the structure, processes and long-term direction of the division.
You will lead a team currently made up of Fire Door & Fire Stopping Surveyors and a Scheduler (4 reports), growing this to 8–10 people over the next 12–18 months.
You’ll work closely with the Managing Director while also receiving a full handover and ongoing support from the existing division head.
This role suits someone who wants the freedom to build, improve and lead — not just maintain.
Key Responsibilities
*
Manage and grow the Fire Risk & Technical division, with strategic oversight of team structure, performance, and service delivery.
*
Lead, mentor and develop surveyors and future Fire Risk Assessors.
*
Support with Fire Risk Assessments (FRAs), fire door surveys, and fire stopping/compartmentation surveys when required for high-priority projects.
*
Oversee scheduling, reporting, resourcing and day-to-day operational management.
*
Manage third-party contractors delivering FRA or surveying work on behalf of the business.
*
Identify gaps in current processes and implement improved procedures, QA frameworks and workflow systems.
*
Ensure high-quality FRA outputs, compliance standards and client communication.
*
Contribute to the longer-term development of services such as compartmentation drawings, FREW, and fire strategy reporting.
*
Act as the key point of contact for senior leadership, reporting directly to the MD.
About You
*
Strong background in Fire Risk Assessments with proven technical competency.
*
Experience as a Surveyor across fire doors and fire stopping/compartmentation desired.
*
Confident leading and developing teams within a fire safety or related technical environment.
*
Comfortable balancing strategic oversight with hands-on operational management.
*
Able to work independently and make informed decisions without heavy direction.
*
Commercially aware with an understanding of service delivery, client needs and operational efficiency.
*
Exposure to commercial environments is ideal; multi-sector knowledge is an advantage.
*
Any experience with FREW, fire strategy reporting or compartmentation drawings is highly beneficialBefore You Apply
